Those windows are called "rose windows" they typically appear in Gothic architecture.

I don't know what kind of window that is that she's standing in front of, or what kind of flowery-circle-shaped window that is in the background, but I'm obsessed with the architecture in that picture, does anybody know what it would be considered or what to call those windows? (I'm not willing to guess much more beyond assuming that it's a cathedral)

In case that link doesn't work, search Google images for "triptych victoria frances." And thanks a lot.
